Holy Facebook app - EVO 4G General

Anyone else's newsfeed change in the newest Facebook app released yesterday? Just changed for me a few minutes ago. Looks better, but still nowhere close to the iOS app.

Exactly, but at least it seems to kind of work nicely...unlike the whack iOS features in the twitter app.

Go back and forth from the news feed a few times; if that doesn't work, restart/FC the app. When it does happen, you'll think that the app is about to FC on you when you go to the news feed.

Aww, that sucks. Sorry to hear. My father died when I was 10 from esophageal cancer when he was 54...almost 9 years ago. Didn't fall into a single category for that type of cancer, or any cancer for that matter.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Still no update
E3D

I received the update. Do not care for it much. Its basically the mobile web page.

Minor tweaks. Definitely not worthy of its own thread.

Its happening guys, just be patient. I doubt there is anyone to manually help it along anyways.

I got it too, I'll try and post a pic.

Finally a solid source talks official 2.1

engadget story..... I have noticed in the past their news is pretty firm. not the gospel but pretty firm.
http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/sprints-htc-hero-update-to-android-2-1-finally-coming-on-may-7/
This should be kept in the general threads. A mod will probably merge it with other 2.1 rumors. You are about the 3rd person to start a thread with a reference to this engadget article.
It's a paradox why people care about this.... what is so exciting about this?????????????????!!!!!!!!!

Its exciting because we'll have custom 2.1 roms based on the official 2.1 firmware for OUR phones, instead of just a leak.

Hopefully not, but it could create more issues/bugs than those fixed....just as the November MR did. I do have my fingers crossed that you are right.

What is this nonsense that people keep saying?
Prior to the MR I had a phone that couldn't output stereo sound through headphones, would randomly miss text messages (that would disappear forever, even after rebooting--a ridiculously serious problem), would stay awake 100% of the time and had terrible battery life, didn't have an easy way to switch calls back and forth from speakerphone, and an unreliable camera that failed to focus most of the time.
What issues are you talking about that were newly introduced? They certainly weren't worse than the ones that I listed above because I haven't noticed any.
Guys, the source of this article is the XDA forum!! Their info isn't any more "official" than our own!

I was in best buy earlier and the two girls working mobile were joking around and not busy at all. So of course I had to go over and start chatting with them. It was my duty as a guy right??? Anyway, I figured that since I had seen this best buy screenshot I would bring it up. They both looked at me like I was crazy. One of them said that the Sprint Hero will never be upgraded to 2.1 and that Sprint and HTC never said it would be. She said the Hero that looks funny, like has the funny looking bottom that is like the g1, that version will get the update someday.
Anyway, I told her I had seen the screen shot from the best buy intraweb so she looked on her computer and said nope, no info on any 2.1 upgrade for the herol.
It'll happen when it does, I don't trust any of the leaks anymore. Just happy I have 2.1 now and it works for me.

i hope so too..everyone's been speculating, and guessing that today is the day..just hope it is the day..the last few hours i've got this bad feeling that it may not be..
its just a bit weird that google have been so tightlipped about it..only indicators that something is due, is the arrival of the gingerbread statue, and the adobe Flash and AIR updates..time will tell..
its kind of strange we haven't had any sort of leak, so i'm seriously starting to doubt that today is the day
Doubt it, personally.

on bgr it is reporting that Dell is working on a dual core streak. Quick someone open a thread on why it will be better than the Nexus one or that they are switching.
You can check SDK package on official website.
It's not the weekend yet, chillax.
lol @ people who think the OTA will drop before the SDK is even released.
Buncha fools up in here.
I thought froyo came out for Nexus one before any sdk - or was that eclair?
sorry, there was some action on twitter - all false - and I fell for it too - sorry guys!

The BB Playbook will run android apps.... I'm so getting one that thing is sexy
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/...k-to-run-Android-apps/articleshow/7473802.cms
RIM plans to integrate the technology with the PlayBook operating system, giving customers access to Android's more than 130,000 apps, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the effort isn't public. RIM, after looking outside the company, is developing the software internally and may have it ready in the second half, two people said.

old, and retarded.
Why waste thousands of dollars on trying to figure out how to run apk files, when you can simply install AOSP honeycomb, and have it look 1000x better.
1 day old news is old a retarded? lol. Let me not feed
I think this is great. I'm curious to see if it actually follows through and how they will put the Android market on it... that's my biggest question. Seems unlikely to have a device with two market places.

If they follow through I'd buy one, always wanted a tablet that wasn't a Tab or an iPad. Having two markets isn't that ridiculous. Isn't there a way for people with rooted phones/jailbroken iPhones that can install the other's market on them?
It'll still rely on RIMs horrible OS. No thanks. Now if only WebOs could run our apks...

What makes you say RIMs OS is horrible? The new QNX based OS looks great. It's funny that you are a WebOS fan, and wouldn't be interested in the PlayBook. They are extremely similar in terms of UI.
I've only read great things about their new OS. If you have some articles saying otherwise, I'd be very interested to see it.

If/When the BB playbook goes to Verizon, should we thank them as well for a software feature which they had no involvement in?

Makes sense. The EF02 release was too buggy to be a RC, plus it still has the debugging code embedded in it. Maybe EF10 was a RC?

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Well hopefully it's a GPS fix as well as everyone on the leak is losing signal after 10-15 minutes or so yielding it pretty much unusable.
And EF16 sounds so much cooler than EF02.

EF10 and I've noticed no such problem.
I wish google talk video chat worked properly though.
EF16, that was quick. Do you suppose there will be a leak of it before an official release? Forgive my ignorance but what is this Sprint "Playbook" I see referred to from time to time and when is it updated?

Facebook for Android 1.6 is up in the market...

...and frankly I'm not understanding what the hub-bub was about with the "closed beta" and "zomg it's gonna be significantly better"
Looks the exact same, same functionality, except that you can upload video's and go to pages...
Lame as usual.
I never have liked the FB app. I just use the browser instead.
Hah and now you can't view what people post on a wall, only that pages posts.
(Example: you can't see what people post on the NHL fan page, only what the NHL posts on its wall)
Facebook has some terrible developers.
dam, i never updated to 1.54 lol
The social networking apps on android suck as compared to iPhone i.e twitter, Facebook, etc. They're just half assed ports smh.
